’tis the season

i had a few others in my head. earlier. when i sat down to write a blog post. and then realized that just because it is Christmas vacation, i am still required to cook my family dinner. so i had to get off this thing.

and then i had a sick little boy to tend to. he started throwing up after we got home from mass yesterday and continued to do so every time he ate a cracker. or drank a sip of water. which happened to be about every hour. hence my thoughts on barf bags.

the best laid plans always come to a halt when someone gets sick. and i. ever the pessimist. am waiting to see who the next victim of this messy stomach virus is going to be. is it terrible to hope it skips me? because i’ll happily hole myself up here at home. and sew. read. bake and snuggle for as many days as it takes for us to get over this. i just don’t want to be the one barfing. i prefer the handmade gift tags part….

It’s just not so merry when you’re barfing, and that’s a fact. I hope it passes you over, all the more because you’re the mom and have to keep things going at home, which is more difficult to do when your head is over a toilet.

Regan, I hope the ‘it’ stops with your youngest! When growing up, I once went out to the barn to clean stalls very early in the morning (I could hear my little brothers) … all to avoid getting sick. It worked, to my delight.

Love the pillow & wish I had time to sew. My machine is covered by piles of laundry – at least it’s clean & folded.
